Agency Initiatives
What is workforce housing and why is it important to Jersey City?
Workforce housing is designed to appeal to persons within the service community; persons that include: teachers, firefighters, nurses, retail managers and civil employees. These populations perform a vital role due to the essential services they provide within every urban area; similarly, they are an integral part of local economy's foundation. Due to a policy blind spot, a shortage of housing subsidies and the relatively high real estate prices of the last few years has driven this population further way from the cities in which they are employed.
Margaret S. Herbermann Manor
Dr. Herbermann was the founder of the School for Crippled Children at Clifton Place in Jersey City, which later became the A. Harry Moore School. Margaret S. Herbermann Manor is the first workforce housing project to be constructed in the Jersey City Heights community. The project, when completed, will contain 45 one and two bedroom units with two ground floor retail stores. The Agency, in its ongoing advocacy of "Green," energy efficient units has worked closely with the developers to ensure that the building contains L.E.E.D. compliant technologies.
